You are assuming that the number of unique ip addresses in analog report is
much smaller than the number of unique ip addresses in the log file. While
this may be true for your particular setup, it isn't true in general -- so
analog should not (and does not) use this assumption.
Like everyone says, use a helper app: not only they're smart enough to thread
the lookups, they're also smart enough to cache resolved hostnames and query
only for a small subset of "not yet resolved" ip addresses. They don't look
up thousands of IPs every day.
